🔥 3 Tips to Stick to Your Diet at Family Gatherings Without Feeling Restricted 🔥 These 3 simple rules have helped 100s of my clients stay in shape while still enjoying their favorite foods with the family: 1️⃣ Protein to Calorie Ratio: ✅ As long as you consume a 10:1 protein to calorie ratio or lower, while avoiding foods that spike hunger or cause bloating, you will lose weight pretty easily in most cases ✅ At family gatherings, the protein options are usually cooked in oil or fattier cuts, which adds excess calories. ✅ Usually we can eat more carbs for energy & satisfaction, but with high fat meats we have to do smaller carb portions than usual to acommodate the extra cals & keep the total calories in check 💡 Clients: Just send us a pic of what’s available & we'll tell you exactly what to eat. Over time you'll develop an instinct to be able to make the right choices intuitively iA 2️⃣ Plan Your Cheat Meals on Lifting Days 🔥 Lifting weights makes your muscles more insulin sensitive, meaning more of what you eat goes to muscle instead of fat. 🍔 A weekly cheat meal on a workout day won’t ruin progress. It can actually help boost metabolism & muscle growth as long as you don’t go overboard. 🍛 Biryani, fries, samosas, soda, dessert? No problem—if structured properly. Even if it’s at a restaurant or family gathering! 3️⃣ Don’t Freak Out Over Temporary Weight Gain ⚖️ A big meal with extra sodium, carbs, or calories can make the scale jump up for 1-2 days—but it’s just water weight. ⛔ DON’T overreact by starving yourself or overtraining. Just go back to the plan, & in a few days, you’ll be right back on track. ✅ Over time, you naturally starts preferring clean foods because you feel better, more energetic, & stronger—w/o feeling restricted. 💡 We want long-term, sustainable results while enjoying the process. No overly strict diets, no burnout, no guilt. If you want my personal help building a nutrition & fitness plan that fits your lifestyle... 💬 Comment ‘coaching’ below to learn more IA!
